redshift_get_cluster_credentials: Returns a database user name and temporary password with temporary authorization to log on to an Amazon Redshift database

Description

Returns a database user name and temporary password with temporary authorization to log on to an Amazon Redshift database. The action returns the database user name prefixed with IAM: if AutoCreate is False or IAMA: if AutoCreate is True. You can optionally specify one or more database user groups that the user will join at log on. By default, the temporary credentials expire in 900 seconds. You can optionally specify a duration between 900 seconds (15 minutes) and 3600 seconds (60 minutes). For more information, see Using IAM Authentication to Generate Database User Credentials in the Amazon Redshift Cluster Management Guide.

Usage

redshift_get_cluster_credentials(
  DbUser,
  DbName = NULL,
  ClusterIdentifier = NULL,
  DurationSeconds = NULL,
  AutoCreate = NULL,
  DbGroups = NULL,
  CustomDomainName = NULL
)

Arguments

DbUser

[required] The name of a database user. If a user name matching DbUser exists in the database, the temporary user credentials have the same permissions as the existing user. If DbUser doesn't exist in the database and Autocreate is True, a new user is created using the value for DbUser with PUBLIC permissions. If a database user matching the value for DbUser doesn't exist and Autocreate is False, then the command succeeds but the connection attempt will fail because the user doesn't exist in the database.

For more information, see CREATE USER in the Amazon Redshift Database Developer Guide.
